Reviews

Insgesamt liegt mit der vorliegenden Arbeit eine detailgenaue und gleichzeitig sehr klar strukturierte Studie vor, in der die umfassende Forschungsliteratur zu den untersuchten Phanomenen im Lateinischen und den romanischen Sprachen aufgearbeitet und die Phanomene gleichzeitig ausgehend von neueren theoretischen Ansatzen teilweise neu interpretiert werden. Der von der Vf. gesetzte Anspruch, ausgehend von den gut dokumentierten Wandelprozessen im UEbergang vom Lateinischen zu den romanischen Sprachen neue Erkenntnisse von allgemeiner theoretischer Relevanz und Perspektiven fur weiterfuhrende Studien zu gewinnen, wird hierdurch uberzeugend eingeloest. -- Esme Winter-Froemel, University of Trier, Romanische Forschungen 129 (2017)
